Our team of dedicated personnel specializes in facade design and engineering, materials specification and testing, facade construction and maintenance, facade access or BMU consulting, and remedial facade consulting. They are well versed in all types of building envelopes, and have diverse knowledge working with conventional materials like curtain walls to modern designs using glass as a structure, tensioned fabrics and photovoltaics.

Facade engineering has increasingly taken on a leading role to address the challenges in designing green buildings. We involve our ESD engineers, lighting specialists and MEP engineers in the collaborative process, utilizing a range of specialist design tools and methodologies for glare assessment, thermal loads and daylighting analysis to optimize the design for environmentally responsive building envelopes.

Our integrated facade solutions are designed to meet our clients’ aspiration, creating high performance facades that are dynamic, inspirational and durable.
